Mister Gaga 22,891 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Not surprised. PI is horrible IN MY MOTHER****ING OPINION so don't quote me. It's the one and only gaga's song that i don't like. And don't tell me she doesn't care about commercial success, because she clearly does. Banners everywhere, huge radio deal, huge upcoming promo...the only solution i see for this situation has one name: RedOne. Bye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmenTheNight 1,084 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 I love the song to death and the direction she's heading to, but let's be clear : this song is not made for charts or for radios. Chosing Perfect Illusion as the lead single is a huge marketing error, I called it as soon as I listened to it. There's a huge difference between a great song, and a great song for a lead single of a hugely anticipated comeback. I have no doubt the album has that in store, but now Gaga and her team will have to deal with the backfire. And don't @ me, I've been playing the song over and over and worship it more than Applause. PI is a marketing error, not a bad song in any way. Those saying it's bad do not understand anything about its clever alchemy between pop, rock, disco, and indie pop. Ok, "music not the bling", art no the charts, no problem, but in the end we and her team will have to accept the consequences of living by these lines. (Cheaper tour, cheaper videos, less promo, etc ...). If they had to take a risk, taking a chance at releasing a ballad would have been a better risk as a lead than Perfect Illusion.

Jonathan2244 1,858 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Why do I feel like she will give up pop music now, maybe this is a perfect illusiion, its not real, she actually sold 350k Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weasel 12,525 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 To think that a song produced by producers of the biggest recent hits (Uptown Funk and Sorry) would lead to a song passing 100k sales if we're lucky. I blame that Kevin guy and his demo (and Bobby and the GP) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

venusfly 17,885 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Why's anyone surprised, it's the worst song she could have picked for a comeback. would've smashed if she released it in peak, but everyone expected so much more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If 120k it'll be good. What promo? Elvis Duran? That won't do ****, it didn't for TIHTY. AHS is our only hope and even that won't help too much because there isn't as much hype for this season as there was for last. 115k at tops. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whis 2,920 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Inb4 Interscope scraps all the Mark Ronson stuff and forces Gaga to call RedOne back and finish the album with him and release the originally planned lead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
